BCSO: Suspected burglar shot, killed by man he was attacking
Jeannie Nguyen
What was supposed to be a regular trip to the ATM for an Albuquerque man and his family, turned into a deadly shooting. However, the Bernalillo County Sheriff’s Office believes this shooting may be justified.A spokesperson with BCSO says so far, all the evidence in this shooting is pointing to self-defense. “We received a call from somebody in the south valley that they had seen their husband fire at least one round at an individual that had assaulted him with a machete,” says Jayme Fuller.
BCSO says it happened on Saturday night when a man’s wife called 911 to tell them her husband was being attacked by another man, while he was at the Wells Fargo ATM on Bridge near Sunset. Deputies say that attacker was 31-year-old Jaime Roman.
Deputies say Roman went after the man with a machete as he was walking back to his car with his entire family in it. At that point, the man who was attacked by Roman, fired at least one shot, killing Roman.
Right now, the Sheriff’s Office says it looks like this was a case of self-defense. “There is such thing as a justifiable homicide when it comes to self-defense, especially in the state of New Mexico,” says Fuller.

Damn! So very close! Come on fatal dose of sepsis! Brother Wilted Willy needs a trifecta of DRT on the FGS. Would have been the FIRST in a long time. But then, again, 2 out of 3 ain’t bad.
(a) Wrong number dumbass, you done dialed your way into a danger zone.
(b) “…cause and manner of death…” ‘Cause he didn’t mind his manners and she shot his ass.
(c) Another knife to a gun fight. You really can’t fix stoopid. Well, you actually can, one well placed bullet at a time.
“Developed in the 1890s by John Moses Browning (Hbhn)……” Even a review of a weapon put out by the oldest privately owned firearms manufacturer in the world HAS to make a reference and comparison to his Most Saintlyness. And calling that Bay-rhetta a Tomcat is most apropos in that it is a weapon that could be described using a word normally used to describe a “cat” or a type of willow tree.
Speaking of feline things, not sure on the broken linky. I will have to get lost on the AR one later. Provision run to the K Roger in the little big town is screaming. ‘Bout out of treats for Kay Kitty, Smokey, Cutie Girl, and Toe’mas. The Crown of FIRST on the TAH Friday Weekend Open Thread will be left on the Mantle Piece in the den. The other Crown is on the Mantle Piece in the kitchen next to the bar.
This was the broke linky. Not sure if it has the same info as today’s AR linky, cause, well, it’s broke!

Ya just KNEW GB would pipe up and say simethin’ if a comparison was made to a gun design and St JMB (Hbhn).
Y’all are just more fun than a bundle of kittens. And I’m glad to be included in this miscreant bunch of DillWeeds and Weedettes.
Now, back to work I (try to) go.
Hope the father wasn’t hurt too badly by the machete wielding idiot! Good thing is wife called the police, hope they didn’t miss the movie having to wait for someone to clean up the mess, or get stiches!
